Diversity
Diversity as the basis for corporate success
Diversity
For us, employee diversity is a prerequisite for innovation and an essential factor in the company's sustainable prosperity. We value what we have in common, but we are working to value our differences equally: to recognize, implement and further develop the potential and abilities of all our employees - regardless of their gender, age, skin colour, origin, disability or sexual orientation. This also means clearly: We reject all forms of discrimination and racism. With a more diverse workforce, we are more competitive and better able to grow as a company.
Our women network herSystemS
We value diversity and equal opportunities and actively promote these within our company. In this context, last year we founded the Arvato Systems network for women in IT professions - herSystemS.

be.queer
Right from the start, employees of Arvato Systems have been active in the Bertelsmann employee network "be.queer". "be.queer" is the first cross-divisional network for LGBTIQ employees and supporters at Bertelsmann and is committed to an open and creative working environment for all employees, regardless of their sexual identity or orientation.
Christopher Street Day | Pride Parade
Arvato Systems participated together with UFA in the parade of the Christopher Street Day (CSD) on July 7th in Cologne with its own car. Under the motto "Diversity is our daily business!", the two Bertelsmann companies joined forces to promote diversity and equal opportunities by participating in the CSD.
IDAHOBIT
Show your colours! Since 2005, the International Day against Homo-, Bi-, Inter- and Transphobia has taken place annually on 17 May to draw attention to the discrimination of people who deviate from heteronormativity in their sexual orientation or gender identity. Arvato Systems has taken part in IDAHOBIT 2019 with numerous rainbow flags to send a clear signal against homo-, bi-, inter- and transphobia.
